  Church And Tribulation

  $16.99

  In the opening chapter, Robert Gundry states, “It is hoped that the following pages will contribute to an understanding and appreciation of the posttribulational position and that it will do so in a manner characterized by ‘the wisdom from above…first pure, then peacable, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, unwavering, without hypocrisy’ (James 3:17). In keeping with this expressed desire, the author presents his thesis regarding Christ’s second coming, not as a polemical argument, but as a reasonable and tenable position.
  This book propounds the thesis that Jesus will return after the tribulation and that the first resurrection will occur at that time. Dr. Gundry believes that biblical evidence points most naturally to this conclusion. Because of his discerning analysis of Scripture, his careful logic, and the thoughtful presentation of his views, he is one of today’s leading spokesmen for posttribulational eschatology.

  Matthew A Print On Demand Title (Revised)

  $58.99

  This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable.

  Heralded as “an epoch-making book” by F. F. Bruce when it first appeared, Robert H. Gundry’s commentary on the Gospel of Matthew stands as a benchmark in biblical scholarship to modern methodology. No commentary in recent history has sparked such passionate discussion among evangelical scholars, and scholars of other persuasions have also paid considerable attention to this work.

  In response to the plethora of evaluations afforded his text since its publication in 1982, Gundry has issues this second edition. Included are an extensive new preface taking up criticisms that reviewers and other readers lodged against the first edition, a new appendix, and 225 new endnotes that expand the commentary and provide fresh reflections on the text.

  This bold, well-informed study remains the redaction-critical methodology of Gundry’s original work and the host of provocative interpretations that result. Elucidated afresh are Gundry’s conviction that Matthew relied on the Gospel of Mark and the document “Q” and Gundry’s arguments for a combination of historical data and theological embellishments in passages such as those that present the birth of Jesus, the Sermon on the Mount, and Peter’s walking on the water. The new preface offers expanded evidence that Jewish literary tradition was concerned more with theological development than with historical exactitude.

  Gundry’s Matthew now provides not only truly engrossing biblical scholarship but also an excellent example of constructive professional dialogue between academicians. Students, pastors, and theologians will find here a wealth of scrupulous hermeneutical research and thought-provoking answers to many open questions in textual studies.

  Mark Volume 2 9-16 A Print On Demand Title

  $53.99

  The fullest commentary ever to come out on the Gospel of Mark, this monumental work by Robert H. Gundry, reflecting years of painstaking scholarship, presents a well-argued alternative reading of the Greek text of Mark. Gundry turns from form and redaction criticism, both of which he considers largely inapplicable to Mark, to a very close reading of Mark’s text as it stands – a reading that pays special attention to such literary devices as word order, chiasm, inclusion, asyndeton, and the historical present tense.

  Driving the commentary is Gundry’s provocative thesis that the Gospel of Mark constitutes a straightforward apology for the apparently shameful manner of Jesus’ death; as such Mark is essentially an evangelistic tract rather than an obliquely written handbook of Christian discipleship and church life. Besides positing this bold, seldom-defended thesis, Gundry’s commentary contains these features:

  *Thoroughness of treatment, including extensive interaction with other interpretations and detailed discussions of authorship, date, etc.;

  *A defense of the Papian tradition, including Mark as getting his materials from Peter;

  *A rejection of the view that Mark 13 reflects the Jewish war of 66-70 C. E.

  *A lengthy excursus on the Secret Gospel of Mark;

  *A rejection of currently popular ironic, polemic, and other symbolic interpretations;

  *New literary critical arguments supporting the view that Mark did not originally end at 16:8; and

  *A massive bibliography.
